Move your body. Still your mind.
Yoga & Workshops
The Move Therapy and Wellness yoga studio offers yoga classes, workshops and therapeutic groups led by Certified Yoga Teachers and Licensed Clinical Psychotherapists.
Through movement, breath work, and meditation, each class offers practical self-care and mental health tools that you can take off your mat and into your daily life. Our space and our classes are designed to support Move's existing therapy clients and the general population through drop in yoga classes and speciality workshops. No yoga experience is necessary, and classes prioritize inner work and self-compassion over difficult poses and advanced sequences.
If you're not in Chicago, we have a virtual membership where you can access on demand classes, we host a number of pop up yoga and wellness events in Portland and you can also attend wellness focused classes at Root To Rise, in Scarborough, where our Maine office is located.

Workshops
Meet Your Intuition
(part of a 4 session series “Meet Yourself”)
6:30-7:45 PM
Meet Yourself is a 4-week workshop group led by psychotherapist, Anna Coco, created for individuals wanting to "meet" and connect with their most authentic parts of themselves.
Through thoughtful exercises, activities, and authentic conversation with group peers, you'll practice intentional reflection that provokes the most authentic parts of you to feel safe to be known and experienced.
Meet Your Intuition workshop is designed to gain awareness of the role of intuition plays in our daily lives. We will explore how to intentionally access it, and how our relationship to our intuition allows us to build trust in ourselves.
Intuition can often be an amorphous concept - we will focus this time on understanding how we can learn to use intuition as a tool to live our most authentic lives.
